Figured i start the new year with a new setup in my 200 litre.
So, i worked even more on the hardscape part and i'm well aware of the grade of maintenance i'll have to do.
But where's the fun in it if there's no challenge?
Starter pack :
LxWxH - 100x55x45 cm
Lighting - 6x39w (3000k and 6500k bulbs)
Filtration - Hailea HF-150 and Eheim 2322, both w/ lily pipes
Twinstar - M2
CO2 - Pressurised w/ Tropica diffuser (3 in 1) - 2 bps - all the time
Skimmer - Odyssea (ebay)
Hardscape - Red moore wood, Twinty wood, Dragon stone
Gravel, sand & substrate - JBL Manado, Quartz, river sand
Full list of plants for this setup :
-Anubias barteri var. nana 'petite'
-Anubias barteri var. nana 'pinto'
-Microsorum pteropus needle leaf
-Staurogyne repens
-Staurogyne sp. 'Porto Velho'
-Alternanthera Reineckii 'Mini'
-Hemianthus glomeratus
-Hemianthus cuba
-Micranthemum 'Monte Carlo'
-Rotala sp. Goias
-Rotala macrandra red mini
-Myriophyllum mattogrossense
-Myriophyllum sp. roraima
-Aponogeton madagascariensis
-Cryptocoryne sp. 'Flamingo'
-Cryptocoryne wendtii Compact
-Heteranthera zosterifolia
Fish :
-Paracheirodon innesi
Hardscape - step by step, with a lot of details :
I used the blue-ish mesh to separate the different types of gravel i used to create the hills and with the help of the Dragon stones, to keep the hills from falling apart.
More pics to come.
Happy New Year to everyone at UKAPS!
